Hotel Graal (Ravello, Italy)

If you're after a hotel with a view, Hotel Graal Ravello has some phenomenal ones. Perched in Ravello, right next to the area's panoramic viewing spot, its location is second to none. Its terrace, restaurant and balconied rooms have serene views over the Gulf of Salerno, a few kilometres east of Amalfi.

Walk for just a few minutes into Ravello and you'll find its central area with the Cattedrale, Duomo Ravello, boutiques and restaurants. Guests also mention that there is a bus that stops close by  that takes you to many other highlights along the coast, including Amalfi, Sorrento and Positano.

Many guests enjoy the selection of pastries and other homemade Italian treats on offer at breakfast. You'll have lots of continental options to choose from in addition to eggs, cooked to order. Guests were also thrilled that breakfast is served with a fabulous view.

Unfortunately, you may find some of the areas in Hotel Graal Ravello are looking old fashioned, as some guests have suggested that it could do with re-decoration to bring it in line with its stunning location.

Aside from its dated appearance, some guests mention that their rooms were tired and poorly maintained, with cracked tiles and water damage in some areas.

You may find it's not as quiet as you imagine it to be at the hotel's pool as some guests have mentioned it's busier and sometimes a little noisier than they'd expected.
